do i need a router or primary wifi base to use airport express or extreme or can they be my primary router? ohh and will there be charges by apple if the airport extreme or express is my only and primary router or modem?
Airport extreme-OTHER, iOS 6.1.3
The AirPort are routers only. They do not have modems on board.
You will need a separate outboard modem, supplied by an Internet Service Provider (ISP) if you want to be able to provide an Internet connection to the AirPort router.
The ISP will charge you a monthly fee for Internet use, and may charge you for a modem as well.
I want to put together a simple music only Airplay set up. I have a first gen Airport Express and an early (flying saucer) Airport Exreme if I need it. The location has no internet access, but all I want is to stream my iTunes albums from my iPad or iPhone. No inernet connection needed. The set up instructions say to connect to the internet via Ethernet (as I do with my home network), but obviously I cannot do that. Can I just use the Airport Express and the iPad together?
Thanks,
Ed
